NEVADA.
ABOUT ANNExING.

The Sil0ey State says there would be bu
about a., 900 people in the territory added
to Nevada by the annexation Of Idaho, and
claims that even then the population Of thi:
State would be about evenly divided polite
ally. The TIMES, in discussing the propo
sition of annexation, and the consequent re
moval Of the State Capital to Winnemucca,
did not intimate that the removal would be
made party question. The eastern portion
Of this State now has nearly as many repre-
sentatives in Senate and Assembly, as has
the western portion, and with an addition oil
$1,000 people to the eastern part it can be
easily seen that she would have the balance
of power in the Legislature, whether the
people sent Democrats or Republicans there
to represent them. 1t would be Of just as
much interest to one party as the other in
the east, as far as we can see, to have the
Capital removed to Winnemucca, as it prob
ably would be. We believe it should be il
the annexation takes place.
As stated before, the damage that would
be done to certain interests in this part oil
the State would be Insignificant when com.
pared with the good that would accru from
annexation. Nevada has not enough terri
tor, is not thickly enough populated, nor
is she possessed Of enough taxable property
TO maintain the kind of State government
she is trying to carry on.
Again, the annexation Of the southern
portion Of Idaho would be step in the di.
rection of obtaining tina. territory in Califor-
MIA lying west OF the summit Of the Sierra
Nevada mountains. With this territory an.
nexed Nevada would be State not only in
name but in every sense Of the word; and
still Winnemucca would be the geographical
center. Not only that, but she is on the
main line of railroad running through the
State, and in time is liable to become even a
greater railroad center than Reno. The
mining, stock raising and agricultural inter-
ests, which are large in Humboldt county,
would boom, and make Of Winemucca a
town that would outshine sleepy Carson as
much as the electric light outshines tallow
candle.
1t is all nonsense for people in the west.
ern part of Nevada to decry the annexation
scheme on the grounds that it would damage
few interests here. The benefit of the
whole State is what should be thought Of.
Nor will the immigration boom and all the
advertising that can be done work as much
benefit to the State as she now stands, as
would the acquirment Of aportion of Idaho.
Give US Idaho or give us-bankruptcy.

ONE WAY.

There is a great deal being said and very
little being done to boom Nevada. Various
ways have been suggested to bring about
this boom. We have an idea that taxation
might be made to cut a very important fig.
ure in inducing people to settle in this State
and invest money here. Why would it not
be good plan to reduce the rate of taxa
ton and increase the valuation Of the prop
erty1 This of course would have to be
done generally throughout the State. The
State rate of taxation would have to be re.
-duced as we'll as the rate in each county.
People who have property upon which they
pay taxes would care very little how the
taxation was arranged so that it was not ex-
horbitant-if they did not have to pay more
than at present. II might be reduced. II
a'person has property that is valued at 81, 900
upon which he is to pay taxes he may only
turn his property in as worth $500. How
ever, it would make no difference to him
whether he paid s. per hundred on the half
valuation or 81 50 on the full valuation. At
the same time the revenue to the county and
State would be the same. Then why not
reduce the rate Of taxation and increase the
valuation Of property 1t would at any rate
make great deal better appearance. Peo-
pie would come into Nevada, and upon ex-
animation, find that property was held at a
high price, and at the same time notice that
the rate OF taxation was low. The natural
conc fusion would be that Nevada would be
agood State to stop in. Would not this
plan induce people to settle heref

Some. still hungry opponents Of Mr.. Stew.
art are finding Temporary comfort in attacking
everybody who supported him, when there is
q circumstance upon which a'plausible COM
plant can be hung. The squeal over Mr..
Drury and his State contract, is not made be-
cause he took contract from State Office
in which he was deputy, but because he
was . supporter Of Mr.. Stewart. 1t may
have been wrong for the gentleman to do as
he did do, but it is possible that he was ig-
norant Of the law, and it is almost certain
that now that he has learned that he was en-.
gagged in an illegal proceeding he will refund
the money. Should he do this no Grand
Jury can be found that will indict hin and

to search for another lamb Of sacrifice

The place on the sidewalk where the

spot yesterday. and. attracted the eyes
OF number of passers by. The spot is
marked by numerous drops and spots
OF blood, seemingly indicating that the
prosecutor lost considerable of that
fluid.
Allen is only small man, while
Hiles is of rather large stature
and very ordinary comment on the
street in relation to the affair was that
II the latt r would let the former

1t seems that both parties had been
drinking and that Hiles was pretty
drunk, condition III which he has been
seen on previous occasion.
We very much regret that such dis
graceful proceeding has occurred and
are deeply sorry that SO prominent
figure IN the history of our local affairs
as Mr.. Hiles is, should have cut SO coz
spicuous figure in street fight oyer so
TRIVIAL a matter, and trust that the

the matter will duly consider all the
circumstances of the case and let his
judgment be tempered with mercy. We
also regret-wel, we regret the whole

The Liberal. Ticket.

The Liberal convention was held On
Monday evening in the Opera House,
and after a severe struggle succeeded in
making the following ticket: Mayor
F. ]. Kiesel; Aldermen, Charles Black
well, w. N, Schilling, John Keck and
A. 1. Stone; Councillors, E. T. Hulan-
iski, H. l.. Griffin, a! Kuhn, w. II.
Turner and P. j. Thorsted; Recorder
J. w. McNutt; Treasurer, o. S. Hill {;
Marshal, w. H. Clark. The tussle be-
tween William Brown and Clark for the
marshalship was severe one, and it is
said the latter only came off victorious
by virtue of having majority of the
nominating committee of fifty as his
lodge companions. The ticket has been
very Literally discussed since being
brought out, with varied degrees of sat
istaction. There is considerable open
kicking and dissatisfaction, and there
was some talk OF getting up an indie
pc ldent ticket.
As the best workers in the Liberal in
terest have been rewarded with moth
ing in the shape of offices, they natur
ally feel little sore, and do not hesitate
to express their unqualified disapproVal
of some of the candidates.
If the Liberal party conclude to let
the ticket stand. as it is, the People will
defeat them by a majority greater than
that of the last election: but of course
if the independent element get up a
ticket, as they talk of doing. it would be
very doubtful matter, and the probable
tiles strongly favor the election of at
least portion of the independent can
didates.

ENHNoLtET Q w " d
A Model Registrar.

The registration officer for Ogden in
vited a gentleman to little picnic on
Tuesday, in which the officer himself
was destined to play role that proved
anything but agreeable to him.
James Hope is an engineer on the &C.
P. road, and has family living at Ter
race. He and his family are registered
at Terrace and vote at the elections
there. Hope comes into Ogden once
every five days and stays some ten
hours, the mcsJ of which time he spends
in sleeping. At the time of registering
voters in December last, Mr.. Hope pre-
scented himself for registration, took the
oath and had his name placed on the
list. His babits were well known, and
mis- right to vote was challenged. On
Tuesday he appeared before the Lib
eral" registrar, and a dialogue in sub
stance as follows ensued: 4

Mr.. H" Yes. sir.
R.-'You say you live at Terrace?"
Mr.. H.-"Yes, sir.
R.-"How does it happen, then, that
you are registered here?"
Mr. H.-"You told me that was en-
litied to vote here"
Ron no [ didn't"
Mr. II. (emphatically)-" but
YOU did. l told you that l run in here
every five days, and you said that so
lorg as that was the case, l had right
to vote here"
R. (confusedly)-"I have no recol-
lection of the occurrence, whatever. "
Mr.. H-"That was the case, how
ever, and there were two or three others
present"
R.-"It is evident, Mr.. Hope, that
you are not entitled to vote here, if YOU
are a resident Of Terrace"
Mr.. b. (tenaciouslY) That is what
I told you, but you seemed to think
differently"
at this point the Liberal attorney
stepped in to help the registrar out,
d Mr.. Hope was informed that that
was all.

the list. Comment on such a proceed
